East Coast Travelling

We're now in Sydney after being in Perth for 4 months which was great as we saved loadss of money working!

We're here until NYE to watch the fireworks and then we'll buy a campervan and set off up the east coast (hopefully we'll find some work before then as its proving a lot harder than in Perth!)

From January we'll have 5.5 months until our visa expires, we might do a bit of farm work along our travels to get free accommodation and food paid for, but at this stage we're not going to do our full 3 months to get our second visa because that would leave us with only 2.5 months to travel. Unless people think that will be plenty of time to do Cairns and back? (We have to come back to Sydney as our return flight is already booked).

How long do people generally give themselves to travel the east coast and can anyone give me ideas of where to stop by?

Make your way up the coast to the Gold Coast, and then if you can make it to Cans. Surfers, Bryone Bay are really cool. Brisbane is alright nothing to special. Cans is pretty sweet. You really cant go wrong on the east coast.
